- Neck Measurement: Measure around the base of your neck, allowing for one finger's space for comfort2.
- Sleeve Length: Measure from the base of your neck to the bottom of your wrist2.
- Chest Measurement: While not always included in the size, it's important for a proper fit. Measure around the fullest part of your chest.
- Sizing Variations: Keep in mind that sizing can vary slightly between brands. Always refer to the specific brand's size chart when available3.
